So, this Borat thing, is it popular just by virtue of it being offensive? The guy’s timing is really bad, which is why he plays these weird characters. He was really painful to watch in Talladega Nights, but then the whole movie was kind of painful to watch…

There’s room for everyone

So much for the Atkins Diet at the Puyallup Fair. I didn’t get to chew on a turkey leg, or eat a slab of ribs. I so much enjoyed the fair scones that I just kept going back. I have a ‘frequent sconer’ card with 18 punches on it. These people just wouldn’t get off […]

Don’t get the spins

Yes, I admit it, I love taking pictures of the ferris wheel. I had to walk around all afternoon just to waste enough time to see the ferris wheel in the dark. I even got to fire a paintball rifle for the first time, shooting down little moving targets. I won a roll of Smarties!

The new Ronald McDonald has 70’s hair, with a flip and curl from the high wattage hair dryer. He does. I saw him at his place the other day, right before I trampled through a biscuit, washed down with sweet, sweet, high fructose corn syrup. (If there are any English majors in the audience, please […]

loan consolidation
September 22nd, 2006 · No Comments
When I was in school I eschewed student loans. Did I really want to deal with school loans, credit cards, car loans and a home mortgage? My friends have all these and have done two college loan consolidations already. Then they consolidated their credit cards into their home equity line of credit. I ended up […]

Austin DWI
September 22nd, 2006 · No Comments
One time when I had just graduated from college, I was in Austin, Texas. At that time I think it was virtually impossible to get a DWI in Austin. I drove around in my rental car with an open beer bottle, drinking away while I drove around town. I guess that they shoot people for […]

Build this Car: 1000 hours, 2500 Bucks, 100 MPG
September 20th, 2006 · No Comments
Jory Squibb built this handsome vehicle (the Moonbeam) from two old Honda scooters over the course of a year. It has a variable speed transmission, interior heat from water-cooling of the engine, and room for two intimate people. We love the way the roof works- a fine convertible when open, sealed tight when pulled […]
